Course Reserve Policies

Fines

Fines are assessed to encourage prompt return of materials. Fines apply all days and all hours, even if the library is closed, and are assessed after an item is overdue. Fees are levies to defray the costs incurred by the Libraries in billing, processing sanctions, and other activities related to the recovery of material.

1 - 10 hours overdue: $2.50 per hour

At 11 hours overdue: Item may be billed as lost. Lost item charges for Reserve loans include a $25 overdue fine + $30 item process fee + a replacement cost of $150 or more.

Due date and time for each Reserve item is provided as a courtesy on the due date slip.

Renewals

No renewals.

If Reserve materials are not in high demand, users may check them out again after they are returned to the Campus Library Circulation Desk.

Returns

Reserve materials must be returned to the circulation desk where they were checked out. If the Bothell Campus Library is closed, UWB/CC Reserve materials can be returned to the after-hours book drop located directly outside the library or on Campus Way NE near the Library Annex..

Responsibility of Patrons

Library users checking out Reserve materials are responsible for:

All Reserve materials checked out on their card.

Knowing when Reserve items are due, and returning them on time.
